appear that, as regards the rights of Bri- tish sealers thesooficials are either donne- ly ignorant or utterly reckless. There is cause for wonder as well as indignation in their actions, to whatever cause they may have been directly due. Whether it was from ignorance of the limits of their powers or wilful disregard of inter- national rights that they confinested the sealing vessels and imprisound their crewe, the outrage is equally sur- 994prising. Capt. de Levron's statement 2,9% to themasterofthe captured-vessel Pillie McGowan--that he would seize any vessel furnished with a sealing outfit, or even with salt on board, it found within one or one thousand miles of Russian territory-showed plainly enough that his notions as to the power he possessed. were wildly extravagant. He was eithor not properly instructed or he had wofully misunderstood his instructions. This is Call the more svideot in the declaration -
which he made to the Captain of the United States schooner C. H. White- which, with a sublime disregard for the extent and variety of the international complications which he might create, he had also captured that he would seize any vessel with a sealing outfit wher- ever caught. Although he did not make any distinction between British and United States, vessels so far as the mere seizure was concerned, ho seemed to take a special delight in treating the British flag with indignity, and ap- parently quite enjoyed seeing that em blem of the Power which is understood to rule the waves trampled on the deck of a British vészel by his own officers. It apparently oc curred to him after he bed fully jon- joyed his victory over these belpless sealers that it would be well to provide against disagreeable consequences. He may even have admitted to himself that Great Britain and the United States,
estimation, compared with Holy Russia, would perhaps be inclined to make a fuss about these little diversions of bia in the North Pacific and try to resent the insults which he had put upon them. Ho, therefore, with trae Muscovite can-
